COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONGouverneur Blonde is a top-fermented special beer with a very characteristic, strong taste and an unparalleled fruity aftertaste. A beer that you would like to keep on flowing. Gouverneur Blonde is brewed with hop (the renowned Tettnanger hop from the South of Germany) and an extra large quantity of barley malt. Hence its golden colour, its full-bodied and malty aftertaste and an alcohol content of 6,5% by volume. Gouverneur Blonde is a beer that is brewed with love and affection. Connoisseurs know that and we have plenty of connoisseurs over here.

On tap at Café Heffer, Amsterdam on 6 April 2011. Clear gold colour. A sweet and fruity, vaguely Belgian styled blonde (think Leffe) beer of no great distinction. Hints of honey and maybe a touch of spice. Soft, rather flabby mouthfeel. Palatable but uninspiring.

Bottle. A soft smell of bread, light aroma of cookies. The head is small, white and foamy, fast disappearing. The body is golden. The taste is light bitter, later it gets sweeter. The carbonation is normal, the body is light and dry-creamy.

Bottle 33 cl. at nationaal park de Groote Peel. Pours an orange yellow/golden with a small white head and an aroma of grass, hops, citrus and fresh malt. The flavour is sweet with sweet malts, caramel, salmiak, hops and some alcohol. The finish is bitter hoppy. A very drinkable beer.

(Draught@Arendsnest) Clear golden with a small head. Aroma of honey-sweetish malt and lots of cardboard. Cardboady, grainy-malty flavor with honey sweetness and some acidity. Medium body with soft carbonation. A dull and cardboardy blonde.
